Nobuyasu Maida, Kiikuni, September 11th, Tensho

With the white, cold wind still blowing through the sky, the five hundred soldiers I led were silently climbing the mountain. The sound of stepping on the grass. Few lights. Fog that can get in. The tense tension elevates the warrior on the battlefield. The sharpened blade waited for the moment when its power was released.

And the thoughts are the same as those of me who lead the soldiers. Your Highness, Keiji, and the squad leaders trusted a young man like me to keep their soldiers. Synchronizers also followed me without complaining.

After that, as I was carrying weapons from the storehouse, the faces of the Red Devils appeared as if they had shown up together. According to Keiji-sama, he believed in me and had already formed an army. so that I can leave immediately... "

I bowed my head to everyone in desperate tears. "Please, fight with me..." It goes without saying that the answers of everyone. I am truly happy.

I want to live up to that expectation. I want to prove you weren't wrong. And... it's time to save the boy. I'll never let go of you again. I clapped my fist in my chest twice or three times and made up my mind.

We arrived at our destination when we began to hear the birds chirping. Immediately thereafter, I recalled the message I had sent ahead. Details reported.

"Sentence! As promised, two hundred Penguin crowds are preparing for battle at Penguin Temple!" There was no sign of Koyasan Shingon Buddhism around, and the 500 men led by Genjiro marched in peace...! "

"Good! You heard the crowd!" The plan is going well. But this is already an enemy territory. It takes less than half a minute from here to Ponkawa Temple, but it is similar to Koyasan! Without losing your vigilance around you, you'll run to the Pongevity Temple like this! "

Ohhh!!

Together with the sound of everyone stepping on the earth, birds fly from a nearby tree. We ran up the mountain at full speed to be distracted by the sound.

Of course, from a secrecy point of view, it's downstairs, but things are different now. The previous message said that there was no one from Koyasan Shingon Buddhism around, but it was nothing more than that it had already been eliminated. It is probably only a matter of time before that fact is known to Koyasan.

It is slightly different from the plan, but it can still be recovered. I'm running through with some noise now to get my schedule a little ahead of time.

This fog is one of the reasons why it was the perfect way to hide us.

Well, at this rate, we should be able to reach Ponkawa Temple in no time. The other three units were all on their way to their destination at once.

The plan is going well. Thinking about the future, I stepped on the earth more vigorously than ever before.

As I expected, I arrived at Ponkawa Temple in less than half an hour. While thanking the Pink River crowd for their warm welcome, I took the executives to the main hall in the back. Following this, three executives of the Pink River crowd entered the main hall, looked around, and quietly closed the door.

The sun is still not rising and the surroundings are dim. We made a circle to enclose the wax lights in the center of the room.

When I rinsed my throat with the white water that Xiao Sheng had prepared for me, I bowed my head to the pink river crowds sitting on the lower seats.

First of all, I'd like to thank you for agreeing with us and offering to help me. I'm so sorry.

"... ah!? No, no... we're... we're... not..."

Are you upset that I bowed my head? The people in the river are shaking. However, my position in the Oda family is low and I have no official position. I have as many heads as I can bow.

Besides, it's rude not to respond thankfully. I looked straight at them as I straightened my posture.

"... once again, I affirm Masada Genjiro Nobuyuki. This time, Masamori Omi, the owner of the Oda family, was given the task of attacking Koyasan Shingon Buddhism. Your help is indispensable to this plan. It was thanks to your help that I was able to reach this point safely. I will report your work to you on my responsibilities."

"Heh... heh!!" I'm so sorry!! "

Their figure, lying flat on the tatami mat while rubbing their foreheads against the tatami mats, was inadvertently overflowing with bitter smiles. As far as I'm concerned, you don't have to lower your hips that much, but there's nothing good about forcing you to do that. I'm sure they won't change their attitude no matter what I say.

- Because they're too scared to stand up to the Oda family.

While sighing at the unchanged fact, he switched his feelings and turned his gaze to them. What I need to do now is not to change the perception of the Oda family, but to succeed in this Koyasan offensive.

Well then, I'd like you to tell me about the current situation of each faction.

Then their representatives took the map out of their pockets and spread it out near the light.

"Haha! Five hundred men from the second unit and five hundred from each of the third and fourth units have already arrived at the fortress of the crowd." As reinforcements, we have selected elites from each faction that agreed with the Oda family, and we have three hundred men in each fort. "

"... I see."

It's a pretty rough map, but if we can figure out the most places, it won't interfere with the plan, and I can only hope we have one. Each fort wasn't far from here either. Together with the reinforcements, we have a total of 3,150 men. After that... it depends on where Koyasan leaves.

How's Koyasan doing?

"Haha! They've already caught the Oda family raising their soldiers!" Initially, the main hall was in a hurry to execute the successive Japanese military debates. But knowing that the number was two thousand changed the attitude. It was judged that the Oda family's aim was not a full-scale march, but a skirmish to advantageously carry the conditions for peace. We dissolved the ronin and geisha that we had gathered, and instructed them to confront the Oda army. Currently, it seems that Koyasan's strength is about 3,000 monks! "

"... what about the surveillance?"

"Haha! They're busy setting up a surveillance system that won't be a problem if it's about 2,000." They estimate that the Oda Army's advance route is from Ten-Go. Perhaps it was judged by the hatred of the Oda family and the crowds in the previous battle. As for the nemoto and the powder crowd, it is only a reserve, and Koyasan is also using this as a hunger gauge to abandon the raga crowd. "

"...... I see"

I was about to exhale a sigh, but I managed to endure it and hit a hammer. Certainly, the Oda family induced Koyasan to think that way, but when he saw that he was so well trapped, he was too stupid to breathe out one or two sighs.

--Truly, they're amateurs in battle...

I slapped my cheek like that. A dry sound echoes, and everyone turns to me to see what's going on.

Well, Maida-sama?

"... no, I don't care. However, things have gone too far as I expected, so I reprimanded myself so that I wouldn't feel relieved."

.........!

In my words, everyone slaps their cheeks in a fluke. Everyone must have been a little loose. Maybe one of the reasons is that I arrived at the base safely.

However, it will definitely seduce us. His Lordship Shingen wrote to his servants on the battlefield.

About the battle, five minutes shall be above, seven minutes shall be inside, and enough shall be below.

In other words, if it is a five-minute victory, the feeling of encouragement will arise for the future, and if it is a seven-minute victory, the feeling of neglecting the enemy will arise.

Exactly. Previously, we were in a battle that went too smoothly. I was underestimating my enemies. You can't win a battle with such a floating feeling!

I stood up and opened my eyes as I slapped on my cheeks and squeezed them back together.

“Take a break. We'll leave when we're ready. Each of you, make a final check!"

Yes!

As soon as I left the room, the cadres ran to the soldiers. Sometimes I would let you know my plans for the upcoming march, but the first thing I did was check to make sure I wasn't losing my mind. If it looks like this, I'll leave it to them.

They clipped their gaze from their backs as they ran away and stepped towards the well.

It happened immediately after that.

- Dawn!!!

A shock that shakes your body. The sky, which had gradually changed from white to blue, was painted bright red, and the black smoke rising high in the sky was clearly visible from here.

That 's--that 's--

"Gao... it's in the direction of the wild mountains..."

Things went in an unexpected direction.
